shots of the fireworks from my solo-trek down to english bay after work on wednesday night: Celebration of Light 2004: Spain

that's Raphael in Hebrew (I think...). bp told me about some site that she saw the other day: www.raphael.bc.ca! i couldn't believe it, it was some honger dude too lol; Raphael Chung. i thought that was pretty funny, but then one night when i was eating dinner at home we saw this story on the news about a local kid who won the Canadian Juniors golf tournament, and his name is Rafael Lee? he's from burnaby too, craazy...but the media's retarded; the website spells his name Raphael, but the scorecard and the news i saw on tv said it was Rafael? yeesh...get your act together people. oh well, at least it wasn't ralph...

who knew that toothpaste had an expiry date?? i didn't. i've been using a tube of Crest that supposedly expired back in January. hmmm...wonder if there's anything wrong with that? still tastes fresh to me...

the mpio mp3 player is made in china. just swapped my samsung YP-30SH for the 128MB mpio at future shop, thought i'd abuse my product service plan to the max (this is the 3rd new mp3 player i've gotten as a result of the "exchange warranty" i originally bought with the Nike PSA Play 60 which was purchased while i was still a future shop employee) - but i want my yepp back. i dunno, maybe i'm just not used to the mpio after having used the yepp for over a year, but the navigation/user-interface (both for the device and the software) bugs me. plus the manual is just friggin shameful! check it out:
3. Pay attention not to have a severe impact on the product, might cause a trouble or a damage.
seriously, how did this stuff make it out of the country??? this makes me wonder what the FRENCH side of the manual sounds like? actually, it might be better actually, who knows? well, hopefully i'll get used to this new little toy, a lot of people seem to have (and like) the mpio, i hope i will too.

it has come to my attention that i have certain effects on different people. the following dialogue occurred on the patio at earl's late last night (saturday) over beers and a "post-dinner dinner":
(preamble: random conversation...)
me: look at ted...nammer always looks so sad.
ted: i'm sad because you make me sad raph. whenever i look at you i just feel sad.
me: ??? (confused, looking around the table for second opinions)
wally: hey don't look at me dude. whenever i look at you, i just get frustrated.
kyle (laughing): i dunno about that... but when i look at you, i do find you amusing at times.
me (intrigued): that's what you get just from looking at me?? k, hey what about cho? what do you feel when you look at me?
cho (thoughtfully): hmmm...when i look at you, i think i just feel hungry man.
